Dracula (Kronos Quartet and Philip Glass) [1931] DVD Rip The ancient vampire Count Dracula arrives in England and begins to prey upon the virtuous young Mina. Being a Universal horror movie buff, I rather cringed when I heard that Philip Glass had composed a score for Lugosi's DRACULA, a film I know word for word (which is fairly pathetic when one considers it, actually--- but, ah, such are the loves and passions of my youth--- before the video generation). However, giving the devil his due, I must admit that Mr. Glass has written, minimalist though it is, a series of gothic set pieces brimming with atmosphere, gloom and vampires. The thematic material, woven in and out by the exceptionally attuned Kronos Quartet, goes through typical Glass permutations but never seems to become tiresome; in fact, the more one listens, the more one hears. Glass has caught something quite intangible here and it deserves a listen.... best at night with your headphones on.... and with garlic hung from windows and doors!
